HAE 100 • Setup Guide
The Extron HAE 100 HDMI
®
Audio De-Embedder is used to extract embedded audio
from an HDMI signal and output it as an analog stereo output or an S/PDIF output.
This guide provides basic instructions for an experienced installer to set up and
operate the HAE 100.
CAUTION: Installation and service must be performed by authorized
personnel only.
Installation
Step 1 — Turn Off the HAE 100 and All Devices
Turn the input and output devices off and unplug their power cords. Verify
that the HAE 100 is disconnected from the power source before proceeding.
Step 2 — Connect HDMI Input Device
Connect an input device to the HDMI input connector (
b
).
Step 3 — Connect HDMI Output Device
If necessary, connect an output device to the HDMI output connector (
c
).
NOTE: It is not required to connect an HDMI output device to extract
audio from the HDMI input device.
Step 4 — Connect Audio Output Devices
The HAE 100 extracts audio using the following connectors. Connect audio
output devices to at least one of the following connectors.
z S/PDIF output (
d
) — This connector extracts digital S/PDIF audio.
Connect an audio output device to this connector using an
RCA cable.
z Analog output (
e
) — This connector extracts 2-channel stereo
analog audio. Connect an audio output device to this connector
using a cable with a balanced or unbalanced 3.5 mm, 5-pole
captive screw connector (see figure 2).
Step 5 — Power On the HAE 100 and All Devices
Wire the power supply (see figure 3) and connect it to the power connector
